Here is a list of my ever-growing collection of cooking or food related books. The starred (*) items are my favourites. In writing this list I have realised how ridiculous a number of cooking/food books I have. I sadly haven’t even cooked something out of every one of these books but it is my plan to correct this before the end of the year.
